[QUOTE="Ryllini, post: 1790522, member: 10826"] there are enough people in Champaign and Vermillion county and the counties out to fill that stadium 75% even on down years. We have to better understand the downstate market and their economics. It is plain as day that the Chicago market runs the state, a fool could tell you that before you hit Kankakee driving down I57, everything is behind from the cars to the housing to the clothing being worn to the abundance of chain restaurants that is considered good. Now, when we get good, we can’t alienate a more limited downstate base, but we need to capitalize on the Chicago metro dollars. We need fans in the seats to help sell this thing. And fans that are loud and not told to sit down on 1st and 2nd down. [/QUOTE]
